Starmer resigned on June 22 after less than two years in power, following poor polls, local election losses, policy U-turns, scandals, and Labour's internal unrest. Greater Manchester mayor Andy Burnham, 56, quickly entered the race after winning a by-election, pledging an orderly transition; he needs nominations from 81 MPs by July 16 to secure the role unchallenged. Starmer loyalists are pushing Treasury's Darren Jones, 39, to run and force a contest, citing his economic experience, though skeptics see Burnham as the stronger choice against Reform UK's rise.

The comment emerged during closed-door EU-Mexico summit meetings in Mexico City from May 20 to 22, as reported by Euractiv on June 12. Diplomats called it a clash with EU policy, which criticizes Israeli settlements but rejects the apartheid label, amid ongoing scrutiny of Kallas's leadership and EEAS reforms. While Kallas has publicly shown solidarity with Israel and pushed for Gaza aid and two-state talks, critics like Danish MEP Henrik Dahl labeled the remark factually wrong and insulting, as pro-Palestinian groups cited similar past accusations from Human Rights Watch and others. The leak highlights deep EU divisions on the Middle East as foreign ministers prepare to meet.

Rep. Thomas Massie, a libertarian-leaning incumbent who often opposed party leadership on foreign aid and surveillance, lost to Trump-backed Navy SEAL Ed Gallrein by 55% to 45% in the most expensive House primary ever, fueled by over $25 million in ads from pro-Israel groups.

Carlson decried the result as the GOP selling out America First principles by colluding with a foreign country, but MAGA supporters celebrated purging a RINO and building a new party aligned with Trump.
